Apparently, one can threaten to kill the President and not be prosecuted
because it is part of the Free Speech amendment in the US Constitution....Title
18. Unless there is a provision in some other US criminal code which I don't
know about.
However, if you work for the CIA and publish a book which contains no
classified information, but exposes the wrongdoings of the CIA, you can be
stripped of all your royalties and gagged for the rest of your life. See US
government v Frank Snepp, decision of the Supreme Court. Very strange Free
Speech provisions in the US constitution I am pleased that we here in the UK
haven't got a written constitution...it is much safer for the citizens... and
better protects human rights...:-)

READ the memo on globalism and Islamic infiltration that led McMaster to fire
its author from NSC

NSC staffer Rich Higgins wrote the memo below. When he read it, National
Security Advisor H. R. McMaster fired him. McMaster should be questioned about
this. Did he think he memo was false? Is he part of those trying to subvert
Trump’s pro-American agenda? Certainly his many statements denying the Islamic
character of Islamic terrorism would suggest so. McMaster must be fired if
Trump is going to have any chance of pursuing his agenda.
POTUS & POLITICAL WARFARE
May 2017
BACKGROUND. The Trump administration is suffering under withering information
campaigns designed to first undermine, then de legitimize and ultimately remove
the President. Possibly confusing these attacks with an elevated interplay of
otherwise normal D.C. partisan infighting and adversarial media relations, the
White House response to these campaigns reflects a political advocacy mindset
that it is intensely reactive, severely under-inclusive and dangerously
inadequate to the threat. If action is not taken to re-scope and respond to
these hostile campaigns very soon, the administration risks implosion and
subsequent early departure from the White House.
This is not politics as usual but rather political warfare at an unprecedented
level that is openly engaged in the direct targeting of a seated president
through manipulation of the news cycle. It must be recognized on its own terms
so that immediate action can be taken. At its core, these campaigns run on
multiple lines of effort, serve as the non-violent line of effort of a wider
movement, and execute political warfare agendas that reflect cultural Marxist
outcomes. The campaigns operate through narratives.
Because the hard left is aligned with lslamist organizations at local (ANTI FA
working with Muslim Brotherhood doing business as MSA and CAIR), national (ACLU
and BLM working with CAIR and MPAC) and international levels (OIC working with
OSCE and the UN), recognition must given to the fact that they seamlessly
interoperate at the narrative level as well. In candidate Trump, the opposition
saw a threat to the “politically correct” enforcement narratives they’ve
meticulously laid in over the past few decades.
In President Trump, they see a latent threat to continue that effort to ruinous
effect and their retaliatory response reflects this fear.
INTRODUCTION.
Responding to relentless personal assaults on his character, candidate Trump
identified the players and the strategy:
• “The establishment and their media enablers will control over this nation
through means that are very well known. Anyone who challenges their control is
deemed a sexist, a racist, a xenophobe, and morally deformed.” – President
Trump, Oct 2016
Culturally conditioned to limit responses to such attacks as yet another round
in the on-going drone from diversity and multicultural malcontents, these
broadsides are discounted as political correctness run amuck. However,
political correctness is a weapon against reason and critical thinking. This
weapon functions as the enforcement mechanism of diversity narratives that seek
to implement cultural Marxism.
Candidate Trump’s rhetoric in the campaign not only cut through the Marxist
narrative, he did so in ways that were viscerally comprehensible to a voting
bloc that then made candidate Trump the president; making that bloc self-aware
in the process. President Trump is either the candidate he ran as, or he is
nothing.
Recognizing in candidate Trump an existential threat to cultural Marxist memes
that dominate the prevailing cultural narrative, those that benefit recognize
the threat he poses and seek his destruction. For this cabal, Trump must be
destroyed. Far from politics as usual, this is a political warfare effort that
seeks the destruction of a sitting president. Since Trump took office, the
situation has intensified to crisis level proportions. For those engaged in the
effort, especially those from within the “deep state” or permanent government
apparatus, this raises clear Title 18 (legal) concerns.
DISCUSSION.
The Opposition. While opposition to President Trump manifests itself through
political warfare memes centered on cultural Marxist narratives, this hardly
means that opposition is limited to Marxists as conventionally understood.
Having become the dominant cultural meme, some benefit from it while others are
captured by it; including “deep state” actors, globalists, bankers, lslamists,
and establishment Republicans. Through the campaign, candidate Trump tapped
into a deep vein of concern among many citizens that America is at risk and is
slipping away. Globalists and lslamists recognize that for their visions to
succeed, America, both as an ideal and as a national and political identity,
must be destroyed.
Atomization of society must also occur at the individual level; with attacks
directed against all levels of group and personal identity. Hence the sexism,
racism and xenophobia memes. As a Judea-Christian culture, forced inclusion of
post-modern notions of tolerance is designed to induce nihilistic
contradictions that reduce all thought, all faith, all loyalties to
meaninglessness. Group rights based on sex or ethnicity are a direct assault on
the very idea of individual human rights and natural law around which the
Constitution was framed. “Transgender acceptance” memes attack at the most
basic level by denying a person the right to declare the biological fact of
one’s sex. When a population has 2 + 2 = 5 imposed on it, there are many that
benefit:
• Mainstream Media – The principle mechanism for implementing narratives.
• The Academy – Academia has served as a principle counter-state node for some
time and remains a key conduit for creating future adherents to cultural
Marxist narratives and their derivative worldview.
• The Deep State – The successful outcome of cultural Marxism is a bureaucratic
state beholden to no one, certainly not the American people. With no rule of
law considerations outside those that further deep state power, the deep state
truly becomes, as Hegel advocated, god bestriding the earth.
• Global Corporatists & Bankers – Exploitation of populations, unfettered by
national protections and notions of personal morality and piety.
• Democratic Leadership – The democratic leadership has been a counter-state
enabler that executes, sustains, and protects cultural Marxist programs of
action and facilitates the relentless expansion of the deep state.
• Republican Leadership – More afraid of being accused of being called a
racist, sexist, homophobe or lslamophobe than of failing to enforce their oaths
to “support and defend the Constitution,” the Republican Establishment accepts
and enforces cultural Marxist memes within its own sphere of operations. In
doing so, knowingly or not, it becomes an agent of that. These “conservatives”
become increasingly indistinguishable from their democratic counterparts save
that they misrepresent themselves to their constituents. Lacking the
discernment to recognize their situation, they will work with globalists,
corporatists, and the international financial interests and will likewise
service the deep state. These establishment Republicans are the hard left’s
designated defeat mechanism in the destruction of the old regime as well as the
American ideal. [1] Because candidate Trump publicly exposed them for their
duplicitous activities, they are at risk as long as Trump can turn on them and
are, therefore, bitter foes. Candidate Trump’s success remains an ongoing
existential threat to establishment Republicans.
• lslamists – Islamists ally with cultural Marxist because, as far back as the
1980s, they properly assessed that the hard left has a strong chance of
reducing Western civilization to its benefit. Having co-opted post-modern
narratives as critical points, Isla mists deploy these narrative to
strategically blind and then control US decision makers. This is by design and
purposeful. “By their own hands!” has been the declared strategy of the Muslim
Brotherhood since 1991. This strategy seeks to divide American society against
itself with the forced imposition of Islamist objectives on one half of
American society by the other half. Once a society has been effectively
atomized, the population will have lost its faith in the old order, detest
those who reduced it, and divide along the lines of narrative adherence. This
is the intended outcome of hostile information cum political warfare campaigns
and today we see their effects on American society.
Complicating the current situation, many close to the president have pushed him
off his message when he was candidate Trump thus alienating him from his base
thereby isolating him in the process. When President Trump is not candidate
Trump, he becomes dangerously exposed. While the base that elected candidate
Trump identified with his vision, they are only Trump’s insofar as he holds to
the vision that made him president.
Political Warfare Attacks – A Primer. As used here, “political warfare” does
not concern activities associated with the American political process but
rather exclusively refers to political warfare as understood by the Maoist
Insurgency model. [2] Political warfare is one of the five components of a
Maoist insurgency. Maoist methodologies employ synchronized violent and
non-violent actions that focus on mobilization of individuals and groups to
action. This approach envisions the direct use of non-violent operational arts
and tactics as elements of combat power. In Maoist insurgencies, the formation
of a counter-state is essential to seizing state power. Functioning as a
hostile competing state acting within an existing state, it has an alternate
infrastructure. Political warfare operates as one of the activities of the
“counter-state” and is primarily focused on the resourcing and mobilization of
the counter state or the exhaustion and demobilization of the targeted
political movement. Political warfare methods can be implemented at strategic,
operational, or tactical levels of operation.
Political warfare is warfare. Strategic information campaigns designed to
delegitimize through disinformation arise out of non-violent lines of effort in
political warfare regimes. They principally operate through narratives. Because
the left is aligned with lslamist organizations at local, national and
international levels, recognition should be given to the fact that they
seamlessly interoperate through coordinated synchronized interactive narratives.
Cultural Marxism – A Primer. While the attacks on President Trump arise out of
political warfare considerations based on non-kinetic lines of effort (as
discussed below), they operate in a battle-space prepared, informed and
conditioned by cultural Marxist drivers. In practical terms, the political
warfare assault on President Trump cannot be separated from the cultural
Marxist narratives that drive them. From an operational preparation of the
environment perspective, President Trump is operating in a battle-space that
reflects the left’s vision.
As used in this discussion, cultural Marxism relates to programs and activities
that arise out of Gramsci Marxism, Fabian Socialism and most directly from the
Frankfurt School. The Frankfurt strategy deconstructs societies through attacks
on culture by imposing a dialectic that forces unresolvable contradictions
under the rubric of critical theory. The result is induced nihilism, a belief
in everything that is actually the belief in nothing.
That post-modern (diversity/multiculturalism) narratives seeks to implement
cultural Marxist objectives can be demonstrated by reference to founding
Frankfurt School theorist Herbert Marcuse’s repurposing of the term tolerance.
In a 1965 paper, Marcuse defined tolerance as intolerance; said it can be
implemented through undemocratic means to stop chauvinism (xenophobia), racism,
discrimination; and should be extended to the left while denied to the right:
• “The realization of the objective of tolerance would call for intolerance
toward prevailing policies, attitudes, opinions, and the extension of tolerance
to policies, attitudes, and opinions which are outlawed or suppressed.”
• “Surely, no government can be expected to foster its own subversion, but in a
democracy such a right is vested in the people (i.e. in the majority of the
people). This means that the ways should not be blocked on which a subversive
majority could develop, and if they are blocked by organized repression and
indoctrination, their reopening may require apparently undemocratic means. They
would include the withdrawal of toleration of speech and assembly from groups
and movements which promote aggressive policies, armament, chauvinism,
discrimination on the grounds of race and religion, or which oppose the
extension of public services, social security, medical care, etc.” (8-9)
• “Liberating tolerance, then, would mean intolerance against movements from
the Right and toleration of movements from the Left. As to the scope of this
tolerance and intolerance: … it would extend to the stage of action as well as
of discussion and propaganda, of deed as well as of word.” (12)
It is through such post-modern constructs that interoperable narratives are
established among various left-wing groups as well as between them and Isla
mist groups at all levels. For example, from the 2001 Conference of Foreign
Ministers at Bamako, Mali, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC)
declared its commitment to fight racism and xenophobia and then declared
lslamophobia a “contemporary form of racism”:
• In this context, the World Conference urges all states … take all necessary
measures to combat hatred, discrimination, intolerance and acts of violence,
intimidation and coercion motivated by racism, racial discrimination,
xenophobia and related intolerance particularly against Islam
• Racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance which
display an increasing trend, in their most subtle and contemporary forms,
constitute a violation of human rights. 3. Contemporary forms of racism are
based on discrimination and disparagement on a cultural, rather than biological
basis. In this content, the increasing trend of lslamophobia, as a distinct
form of xenophobia in non-Muslim societies is very alarming.
That the OIC made these claims as part of its planned inputs to the United
Nation’s “Third World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination,
Xenophobia and Related Intolerance” further demonstrates the coordinated and
interoperable nature of these narratives at international levels in
international forums.
As cultural Marxist narratives intensify, they are to be further
operationalized in the form of hate speech narratives. Hate speech narratives
are non-random, coordinated, and fully interoperable escalations of cultural
Marxist memes. Key international players include the European Union, the UN,
and the OSCE, the OIC and the International Muslim Brotherhood. Hate speech
memes are structured, coordinated, and implemented through these same
international forums. They involve close coordination with media and social
media and include the Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) narratives. David
Shipler’s book Freedom of Speech provides a road map for how hate speech
narratives are to be structured, deployed and enforced.
Battlespace. These attack narratives are pervasive, full spectrum and
institutionalized at all levels. They operate in social media, television, the
24-hour news cycle in all media, and are entrenched at the upper levels of the
bureaucracies and within the foreign policy establishment. They inform the
entertainment industry from late night monologues, to situation comedies, to
television series memes, to movie themes. The effort required to direct this
capacity at President Trump is little more than a programming decision to do
so. The cultural Marxist narrative is fully deployed, pervasive, full spectrum
and ongoing. Regarding the president, attacks have become a relentless 24/7
effort.
While there is certainly a Marxist agenda and even lslamist motivations that
must be seriously addressed in their own right, these motivations alone seem
inadequate to explain the scope and magnitude of the effort directed against
the president. The economic drivers behind the Marxist and Islamist ideologues
are enormously influential and seek to leverage these ideological movements for
their own self interests. While beyond the actual scope of this document, the
benefactors of these political movements include; Urban Real Estate who depend
greatly on immigrant tenants, International Banking who seeks to maintain US
debtor status so as to control the application of American power, and elements
of the business sector that depend upon immigrant labor or government
infrastructure. The overall objective of these economic forces is the forced
urbanization of the populace, thereby necessitating a larger, more powerful
government. In summary, this is a form of population control by certain
business cartels in league with cultural Marxists/corporatists/lslamists who
will leverage Islamic terrorism threats to justify the creation of a police
state.
Adversary Campaign Plan. Political Warfare has been described as “propaganda in
battledress.” [3] The effort directed at President Trump is executed along one
overt, as well as two covert, lines of effort:
• The overt line of effort is PUBLICITY. Publicity is the straightforward
projection of a case that builds a picture in the audience’s mind designed to
garner support. It is facts without context and information the adversary wants
the audience to possess that creates an impression and sets conditions. It
seeks to establish good will and receptiveness to additional inputs.
• There are two covert lines of effort: PROPOGANDA [sic] and
INFILTRATION/SUBVERSION.
o Propaganda is the deliberate direction, even manipulation, of information to
secure a definite outcome. It is an attempt to direct the thinking of the
recipient, without his conscious collaboration, into predetermined channels
that are established in the Publicity line of effort. It is the unwitting
conditioning of the recipient by devious methods with an ulterior motive that
seeks to move them incrementally over time into greater belief and acceptance
of message transmitted in the Publicity line of effort.
o Infiltration and subversion operate internal to the targeted organization in
order to inform, target, coordinate, and amplify the effects of the publicity
and propaganda. Both operate to gather intelligence, obstruct legitimate
courses of action, provide inside information, and leak sensitive information
that undermines the leadership and suppresses the morale of friendly elements.
o Infiltration of political and social groups within a target state is done for
the purpose of extending counter-state influence and control. The endgame is
concealed and may involve illicit activities.
o Subversion undermines or detaches the loyalties of significant political and
social groups within the target state and transfers political and/or
ideological loyalties to the counter-state. As the counter-state forms, a
counter-elite of influential individual and key leaders within the target state
will later facilitate the legitimacy and permanency of the new regime.
Political warfare employs both publicity and propaganda. It recognizes no
intrinsic virtue in the news but rather envisions it as a mechanism to exploit
and build up support. From a political warfare perspective, control of the news
cycle is the most potent means of attracting and building up a favorable
audience. As it relates to the news cycle, publicity and propaganda can be
merged to form a “pseudo-publicity” that is presented as news in furtherance of
sustaining pseudo-realities maintained by cultural Marxist memes.
Pseudo-publicity treatment of President Trump dominates the news cycle. The
current campaign against President Trump operates in the following manner:
The Meta Narrative. Meta narratives seeks [sic] to delegitimize President
Trump, his administration, and the vision of America he projected as a
candidate. With cultural Marxist memes serving as the backdrop, President Trump
is to be relentlessly characterized as unfit through the use of supporting
narratives acting to move unwitting populations to belief in the meta
narrative. Hence:
• “President Trump is illegitimate”
• “President Trump is corrupt”
• “President Trump is dishonest”
Note that the twitter accounts and mainstream media personalities pushing this
narrative have seen their audience numbers rise greatly in the past 6 months.
This is a direct result of the supporting and backdrop narratives channeling
individuals to this meta-narrative.
Supporting Narratives. Meta-narratives are supported by an ongoing series
supporting-narratives that can be swapped out as circumstances warrant. It is
important to recognize that these stories do not have to be true, valid or
accurate to serve their purpose. Over time, deserved or not, the cumulative
effect of these supporting narratives will result in a Trump fatigue. From a
political warfare perspective, President Trump’s inability to meet this
challenge will cast him as a weak failed leader. The current list of supporting
narratives include:
• “Russia hacked the election” – illegitimate
• “Obstruction of Justice” – corrupt
• “Hiding Collusion” – dishonest
• “Putin Puppet” – treasonous
Backdrop Narratives. The backdrop to the meta and supporting narratives are
cultural Marxist memes designed to sustain a general sense of loathing of
President Trump and the America that elected him. Hence:
• “[meta] President Trump is illegitimate, [supporting] he was elected because
of Russian hacking, [backdrop] and besides, he a racist, sexist xenophobe.”
Adversaries utilize these interlocking narratives as a defensive political and
information warfare screen that silences critics and smears supporters of
President Trump. When people in the media question the behavior, actions and
decisions of the Trump Administration’s opponents, they are immediately said to
be “working for the Russians” or “supporting Russian propaganda.” Individual
Americans who support the President are deemed “deplorable” and “racist.”
End State. Attacks on President Trump are not just about destroying him, but
also about destroying the vision of America that lead [sic] to his election.
Those individuals and groups seeking the destruction of President Trump
actually seek to suffocate the vision of America that made him president.
Hence, the end state is not just a delegitimized, destabilized, immobilized and
possibly destroyed presidency; but also a demoralized movement composed of a
large enough bloc to elect a president that subsequently become self-aware of
its own disenfranchisement.
CONCLUSION.
The recent turn of events give rise to the observation that the defense of
President Trump is the defense of America. In the same way President Lincoln
was surrounded by political opposition both inside and outside of his wire, in
both overt and covert forms, so too is President Trump. Had Lincoln failed, so
too would have the Republic. The administration has been maneuvered into a
constant back-pedal by relentless political warfare attacks structured to force
him to assume a reactive posture that assures inadequate responses. The
president can either drive or be driven by events; it’s time for him to drive
them.
